Volumetric breast density and radiographic parameters (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The detection of breast cancer relies on high-quality images from digital mammography. Optimal levels of compression force are unknown, and UK national guidelines recommend forces of less than 200N. However, large variations in compression forces exi... Read More about Volumetric breast density and radiographic parameters.

A 6 year study of mammographic compression force : practitioner variability within and between screening sites (2014)
Journal Article

Background
The application of compression force in mammography is more heavily influenced by the practitioner rather than the client. This can affect client experience, radiation
dose and image quality. This research investigates practitioner comp... Read More about A 6 year study of mammographic compression force : practitioner variability within and between screening sites.

A mammography image set for research purposes using BI-RADS density classification (2014)
Journal Article

Purpose Breast density categorization consistency is important when performing research, and minimization of interoperator
and intraoperator variability is essential. This research aimed to validate a set of mammography images for visual breast
den... Read More about A mammography image set for research purposes using BI-RADS density classification.
